Yessireebob, my local gas station, tonight, $4.29/gal regular. Oh.Joy. After sending consumers into sticker shock the past month, how much more can gasoline prices climb? Another 20 to 50 cents a gallon — a level that could propel the cost of gasoline, now $3.75 a gallon, to all-time highs, some experts say.
